Hey - if you are the average octogenarian Lexus owner, you'll be damn thankful for that brake hold button when your arthritis of the knee flares up...at least until your thumb arthritis interferes with the button...maybe they could do voice activated brake hold.

Did Toyota just pay for this reply? Brilliant!!!

Heavy drinking is a basic requirement of any LeMons race - because it is essentially Burning Man meets Isle of Man, and while Jim/Jack always welcome when the track isn't hot — I am more of a Scotch man myself ;)

LeMans or LeMons?

How long do you suppose the "investigative journalist" drove around with a dash cam looking for erratic drivers? Days? Months? Brooks should move to California where you can find all kinds of idiots weaving all over the road on a daily basis. #notnewsworthy

To all the internet keyboard stewards who are demanding the crucifixion of the red Miata —remember, this is racing. Its not a cruise down your local freeway or friendly game of flag football - this is a dangerous sport that sucks your wallet dry and routinely kills, maims and disfigures people. If you aren't…

1. Kimi always performs best under fire.

Great article Patrick - I 100% agree that the BTTF trilogy helped to shape many a modern day jalop. It is one of those movies where the cars aren't just props, they are characters. Marty's Toyota Hilux 4X4 is one of my favorites - DT recently featured a replica for sale on ebay for about $15k.

Didn't Max have a gas savings switch that would turn the supercharger on-off via an electronic clutch? Basically a Prius when the SC is turned off...right?

That is how you make a no bake apple pie.

Why does every modern concept car need to look like a Hot Wheels from the 80s? Am I the only one who notices this? Is it because modern day automotive designers are kids who grew up in the 80s playing with hot wheels? Pic below from Tanner Foust's latest birthday party.

I am going to go out on a limb and say the Eleanor Mustang from Gone In 60 Seconds (the Cagey remake)... Sure, lots of folks are going to say "but I love that car" - and it was cool in the movie and sounded/looked great on screen...but the problem is that 1,000s of 67/68 Fastbacks are now being stripped of their…

Sir, we've had a report of a BMW using turn signals in this area and we'd like to check your bulb filaments for residual traces radiation that accompany usage. If we detect any recent use, we are going to need proof you used your hazards to signal victory in a street race or we'll need to impound this vehicle.

Both are wrong. The answer is LeMons, specifically Eyesore Racing. Because Miata.

Did someone say Austintatious?

Who wouldn't want an all-wheel-drive monster truck with a couple of extra seats in the back for kids? Abject terror, its what makes a Subaru, a Subaru.

I thought this was Cuba?

Google has an interesting result when I put your name in. First "arrest" and then "racing"...any comment on this?
